Bear, my dog since I was three

We grew up together and loved each other

It was only 2 weeks from christmas

when i said goodbye for the last time

I knew he would be better after it was over

but that doesn't mean it wont hurt to see

he was a good dog to me

We played basketball when i was younger

throughout the summer

And when he had slipped away

I knew he was going to be okay

He was sick and unwell

so letting go was all we could do

We didnt want him to suffer

When we came back the house felt empty

too quiet, he wasnt there

He had lived a long, happy life

But at the end of the day

We will still remember

Our dog who died in December
